Counting Crows is a rock band that became extremely popular in 1993 following the release of their debut album "August and Everything After" featuring the hit song "Mr. Jones." The band was formed by singer Adam Duritz and guitarist David Bryson (both former members of The Himalayans) in San Francisco in 1991. Counting Crows originally performed as an acoustic duo, playing gigs in and around Berkeley and San Francisco. After adding other members, the band was signed to Geffen Records. Counting Crows, with their intimate and melancholy approach, quickly achieved a large fan base among Generation X alternative rock fans who were looking for something different from the raging guitars of the Seattle music scene.

Good Night, Elizabeth Lyrics
Counting Crows
i was wasted in the afternoon
waiting on a train
i woke up in pieces and elizabeth had dissapeared again
i wish you were inside on me
i hope that you're ok
i hope you're resting quietly
i just wanted to say
goodnight elizabeth
we couldn't all be cowboys
so some of us are clowns
and some of us are dancers on the midway
we roam from town to town
i hope that everybody can find a little flame
me, i say my prayers
then i just light myself on fire
and i walk out on the wire once again
and i say
goodnight elizabeth
i will wait for you in Baton Rouge
i'll miss you down in New Orleans
i'll wait for you while she slips into something comfortable
and i'll miss you when i'm slipping in between
if you wrap yourself in daffodils
i will wrap myself in pain
and if you're the queen of California
baby i am the king of the rain
and i say
goodnight elizabeth
